AI overview

The Caucasus is a mountainous region between the Black Sea and Caspian Sea that spans parts of Russia, Georgia, Armenia, and Azerbaijan, traditionally marking the geographical boundary between Europe and Asia. It matters because the Caucasus Mountains—which include Europe's highest peak, Mount Elbrus—have long served as a natural dividing line between two continents and encompass diverse territories across multiple countries.
